It’s been a week. A long, frustrating, draining, emotions-running-around-in-circles, week. A week where you could stand on a cliffside and scream into the void whilst confusing some mermaids.

Instagrammed
This has become something of a bad habit. I think it’s a wonderful mix of the way social media works, the way Instagram keeps changing its stupid algorithm, and my own anxiety. It’s a strange cycle. Also please enjoy that throwing pose in Panel 6. Took me 30 minutes to get it looking something like… Continue reading Instagrammed
Intrusive Thoughts
For the record, I didn’t. But the fact that the thought even popped into my head was really bizarre. And it still sometimes pops up when I look at the figurine…
Mermay: Punch

Cicada to the Face
Don’t worry, Dot. Pretty sure that the cicadas are all starting to die out, judging by the massive pile of dead bugs on our porch. And they have gotten quieter – haven’t been hearing that low alien drone as much recently. So it might be the start of the end. Is it weird that I’m… Continue reading Cicada to the Face
Catastrophic
